Title: Expandable cage
Inventor: ENGSTROM CONNOR
IPC: A61F2/46
Filed: 2018-05-04
Abstract: An intervertebral implant that iterates between collapsed and expanded configurations includes first and second plates spaced from one another along a first direction and defining bone-contacting surfaces facing away from each other along the first direction. An expansion assembly is positioned between the plates with respect to the first direction and includes a first support wedge that supports the first plate and defines a first ramp and a second support wedge that supports the second plate and defines second and third ramps. The expansion assembly includes an expansion wedge defining a fourth ramp. The first, second, third, and fourth ramps are each inclined with respect to a second direction that is substantially perpendicular to the first direction. At least one of the first and second support wedges is slidable along the respective supported first or second plate. The implant includes an actuator configured to apply a drive force to the expansion wedge so as to cause 1) the fourth ramp to ride along the third ramp so as to increase a distance between the bone-contacting surfaces along the first direction, and 2) the second ramp to ride along the first ramp, thereby further increasing the distance, thereby iterating the implant from the collapsed to the expanded configuration.

Title: Hyperspectral image-guided raman ocular imager for Alzheimer's Disease pathologies
Inventor: SHAKED ELIAV
IPC: A61B3/14
Filed: 2018-11-27
Abstract: A non-invasive ocular light-based detection device for detecting Alzheimer's Disease (AD)- associated pathologies in the retina of the eye. The device uses two imaging modalities where one imaging modality guides the particular regions to be interrogated by the second imaging modality. A hyperspectral reflectance imaging unit detects light reflected and/or backscattered off of the retina from a broadband light source, which is used to determine one or more regions of interest. A Raman spectroscopy unit detects light that is re-emitted by the retina by Raman scattering phenomenon from a laser that is targeted onto a region of interest that is determined from hyperspectral reflectance information. The detected information from the hyperspectral reflectance imaging unit and the Raman spectroscopy unit are used to determine the presence of the one or more AD-associated pathologies. The detection device allows for the identification of at-risk populations, diagnosis, and tracking of patient response to treatments.
